The Civil and Local Government Staff Association of Ghana (CLOGSAG) has declared a nationwide strike effective Thursday, February 13, 2025.
The action is to protest Samuel Adom Botchway’s appointment as the Registrar of the Births and Deaths Registry.
In a statement, CLOGSAG explained the decision follows a meeting of the National Executive Council (NEC) on February 11, 2025.
At the meeting, concerns were raised about appointing politically exposed persons into the Civil Service and local government structures.
NEC resolved that if Mr Botchway assumed office, CLOGSAG would embark on an industrial action.
Following his official assumption of duty on Wednesday, February 12, 2025, the association has announced that it has no option but to proceed with a nationwide strike
CLOGSAG has therefore urged all its members to stay at home from the commencement of the strike until further notice.
